The screen resolution of the monitor is responsible for the clarity of the image and text, as well as for the correct position of the picture on the screen. The higher the resolution, the clearer objects appear on the screen, and at the same time, the smaller they become.
Instructions
Step 1
The smallest resolution on modern computers is considered to be an extension of 640x480. The first number indicates the number of dots horizontally, the second vertically. So, on a 1280x960 screen, one point at this resolution will occupy 4 pixels, thus the image will be blurry, letters are bulky, photographs and labels are angular.
The optimal resolution is 1280 horizontal pixels for monitors with a diagonal of 14-15 inches. Monitors from 17 inches use a higher resolution, such as 1600, 1920 or more horizontal dots.
Step 2
To change the resolution in Windows XP, right-click on the desktop, select "Properties" in the context menu that appears. In the window that opens, go to the "Options" tab and move the horizontal slider in the "Screen resolution" section to the resolution you need. On the right, here, you can change the color quality. The desired parameter is 32 bits. After that click "Apply" and see the result. If you are not satisfied with the picture quality on the screen, continue experimenting with the slider.
Step 3
If you have a Windows Vista or Windows 7 computer, right-click on the desktop and select "Screen Resolution". In the window that appears, select item # 2, click on the drop-down menu and move the vertical slider to the desired resolution, then click "Apply" and pay attention to the result. Here you can also change the screen orientation from landscape to portrait or flip the image on the monitor.
